On Batuu, at the edges of the Unknown Regions, a threat to the Empire is taking root—its existence little more than a glimmer, its consequences as yet unknowable. But it is troubling enough to the Imperial leader to warrant investigation by his most powerful agents: ruthless enforcer Lord Darth Vader and brilliant strategist Grand Admiral Thrawn. Fierce rivals for the emperor’s favor, and outspoken adversaries on Imperial affairs—including the Death Star project—the formidable pair seem unlikely partners for such a crucial mission.

On the planet Tython, the ancient Je’daii order was founded. And at the feet of its wise Masters, Lanoree Brock learned the mysteries and methods of the Force - and found her calling as one of its most powerful disciples. But as strongly as the Force flowed within Lanoree and her parents, it remained absent in her brother, who grew to despise and shun the Je’daii, and whose training in its ancient ways ended in tragedy. Now, from her solitary life as a Ranger keeping order across the galaxy, Lanoree has been summoned by the Je’daii Council on a matter of utmost urgency.

For the handful of scattered Jedi, survival is imperative if the light side of the Force is to be protected and the galaxy somehow, someday reclaimed. Yet more important still is the well-being of the twin infants, Leia and Luke Skywalker, the children of Anakin and his doomed bride, Padme Amidala. Separated after Padme's death, they must be made safe at all costs, lest the hope they represent for the future be turned to horror by the new Sith regime, and the unspeakable power of the dark side.

Times are desperate for the Rebel Alliance. Harassment by the Empire and a shortage of vital supplies are hindering completion of a new secret base on the ice planet Hoth. So when Mid Rim merchants offer much-needed materials for sale, Princess Leia Organa and Han Solo lead an Alliance delegation to negotiate a deal. But when treachery forces the rebel ship to flee into territory controlled by pirates, Leia makes a shocking discovery: The fierce marauders come from Leia's homeworld of Alderaan, recently destroyed by the Death Star.

Five years after the Death Star was destroyed and Darth Vader and the Emperor were defeated, the galaxy is struggling to heal the wounds of war, Princess Leia and Han Solo are married and expecting twins, and Luke Skywalker has become the first in a long-awaited line of new Jedi Knights. But thousands of light-years away, the last of the Emperor’s warlords - the brilliant and deadly Grand Admiral Thrawn - has taken command of the shattered Imperial fleet, readied it for war, and pointed it at the fragile heart of the New Republic....

Unexpected and Enjoyable

Publisher's Summary

A companion novel inspired by the hotly anticipated video game Star Wars: Battlefront, this action-packed adventure follows a squad of soldiers caught in the trenches of the ultimate galactic war between good and evil.

It's an OK story....

This was hard to get though.

The story is slow and mundane and I could only listen in small snippets. I didn't care about any of the characters and only got exited when the story intersected with events we know in the films. It's a cool exercise at looking at the military aspect of Star Wars but it would work better as a live action show/movie.

Interesting

This was filled with action. Not enough twist and gut wrenching turns as the previous novels. You actually hear another side to the story, based from the front lines point of view. Overall, I can say this is a pretty good listen.

Well, it's Star Wars... But it left me begging for more.

Having read all or nearly all of the new canon books, I would have to say Battlefront: Twilight Company is my least favorite. The action was solid, the dialogue was plentiful, but I felt no connection or empathy for the squad. This isn't an impossible feat either, it was executed perfectly in the Stackpole/Allston (especially Allston, RIP) X-Wing series. Characters could have, and should have been more fleshed out. Nearly everyone seemed bitter and unapproachable.

The narrator's performance was predictable, that is to say excellent, as I'm familiar with Davis' past works in the SW universe. He delivered solid inflection, and the acting was superb, especially when delivering feelings of regret, sadness, nervousness and pain.

The Hoth scene was the most tense and exciting. I thought the author did a good job of 'humanizing' the Rebels and Imperials, rising up the Rebels to a certain level of ruthlessness and bringing the Imperials down from an 'inherently evil' standpoint.

This is a star wars junkie bucket list dream book

Where does Battlefront: Twilight Company rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I love most of the Star Wars books..minus another new book that came out recently and should of been burned along with Jar Jar. However, with that said, this book is very well done and keeps you involved the whole way through...like a good Star Wars book should do.

Who was your favorite character and why?

They were all pretty good.

Have you listened to any of Jonathan Davis’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes..great

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

"In the absence of the Jedi,...how many will rise to take a stand? How many will fall?"

Best new canon book so far

This is by far the best book in the new cannon with lords of the sith coming in second. The author worked on the old republic so it doesn't surprise me that this was much better across the board especially compared to that bush league garbage wendig put out. Honestly this is the first of the new books that I wasn't looking at the time remaining and wishing it would. My ONLY complaint (if you even want to call it that) is that the narrator does this robotic nick cage voice for the chapter headings. I thought it was pretty funny

Amazing!

I wasn't sure how I was going to like a Star Wars book that seemed to take a more wars approach, leaving behind some of the more sci-fi elements. After listening in glad I didn't let that hesitation stop me from enjoying, because it was amazing! I could barely stop listening and wouldn't have minded if it was another 10 hours long!
